Military Medal 'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty, near ALBERT on 19th May, 1918. During the operations against VILLE-SUR-ANCRE these men [SCOTT and 2252 V.J. ROCKCLIFF] acted as stretcher bearers, and worked unceasingly during the whole of the action with total disregard for their own personal danger. They attended to and carried in many wounded from the most advanced positions under very heavy shell, machine gun and rifle fire. In their anxiety to alleviate the suffering of their less fortunate comrades they many times risked their own lives. These men worked for hours with never ceasing efforts, and undoubtedly did much towards the successful evacuation of the wounded.'
